OUR CENTRIFUGAL AIR COMPRESSORS RANGE

What are the Benefits of the Ingersoll Rand Centrifugal Compressors?

Ingersoll Rand manufactures a complete line of fully packaged centrifugal compressors in a wide range of capacities and power ranges. The revolutionary MSG® and TURBO-AIR® centrifugal compressors offer advanced, state-of-the-art source of oil-free gas and air for numerous applications with multiple benefits: 

Oil-Free:

  • Prevents system contamination
  • Reduces the potential for compressed air pipeline fires caused by oil carryover
  • No costly waste disposal associated with oil-laden condensate
  • Eliminates the expense and maintenance of oil separation filters at the discharge

The latest technology in design engineering:

  • 1D, 2D and 3D CFD software for preliminary design, detailed blade shape design and analysis using 3D Unsteady Navier-Stokes flow modeling
  • Mechanicial Analysis: FEA – stress and resonance calculations, rotordynamics – bearing and vibration analysis and mechanical design – solid modeling
  • State-of-the-art testing facilities: comprehensive Testing to guarantee performance, all MSG and TURBO-AIR compressor designs are tested for aerodynamic and mechanical performance

More Efficient:

  • Aerodynamic Design: The shape and design of the Ingersoll Rand centrifugal air compressor impeller, diffusers and scrolls minimize aerodynamic losses and optimize the flow of the air through the compressor. As an example, overall savings can be as great as a 5% increase in efficiency over some cast impeller designs
  • Gas Flow Arrangement Improvement: MSG and TURBO-AIR centrifugal compressors feature an advanced arrangement of gas flow components that reduces turbulence-induced friction, and permits air is cooled after every stage to provide high isothermal efficiency

Low Maintenance & Reduced Costs:  

  • Ingersoll Rand engineered centrifugal compressors are designed with sufficient instruments to plan maintenance and reduce downtime. The goal is to save you time and money by providing worry-free operation of your equipment with simple maintenance
  • Configurations are available to allow 5 years between shutdowns
  • In addition, our packages are easily accessible for inspection and cleaning

Flexibility: Ingersoll Rand's cutting-edge packaging concept gives you great flexibility to tailor a centrifugal compressor to meet your needs while simplifying installation and maintenance. Our MSG and TURBO-AIR packages can include: 

  • Lubrication system 
  • Intercoolers 
  • Shaft coupling with guard
  • Interstage piping
  • Main driver
  • Control panel

API Compliance: API 617, 672, 614, and more.

Other Quality Certifications: CE, PED, ATEX, China Code Pressure, Vessel Certification, GOST, KOSHA, ASME, and more.
